Ever since I came back, I've been crazy busy. My Master's Classes will finally be finished (HOORAY!!) at the end of this month and the workload for these two courses I'm in has been insane. Plus, I've been trying to get in to my new classroom as much as possible. Oh, and did I mention that my husband and I bought a new car? It's the perfect size to haul school supplies to my new classroom! :)
Well, another week begins in my life after space camp (LASC). I truly feel like a kid missing all of the fantastic people I met while there. But...life must go on! Ever since I came back, I've been crazy busy. My Master's Classes will finally be finished (HOORAY!!) at the end of this month and the workload for these two courses I'm in has been insane. Plus, I've been trying to get in to my new classroom as much as possible. Oh, and did I mention that my husband and I bought a new car? It's the perfect size to haul school supplies to my new classroom! :) Today I'm linking up with The Applicious Teacher to share some ideas about homework! Last year, when I was at the middle school level, I used my No Homework Binder to help keep kiddos accountable (this became my most famous blog entry to date from my old blog). Basically, when a kiddo didn't have their assignment, they would fill out the assignment name, date, and the reason the assignment was incomplete in their page in the binder. The pages were organized by class hour. Then, when I entered in grades, I entered the student's reason for in completion in the comments section of my grade book. This system was fantastic, but as the year went on, students forgot to fill in the binder more times than not, and then I had to track them down.
